Nice 406 cou......Oh, I see 
I've seen wider tyres on pushbikes!

Big V6 3.0 one
I honestly would choose the Austin over it. One of its many downfalls, including a petrol tank mounted just above the engine (under the bonnet) and of course no seatbelts.
That'll be my Sony Ericsson Elm™Nice shade of pink
It's no iPhone, that's for sure!
I went on holiday and forgot my camera. How lame is that?
Had a passenger ride in a Gallardo Spyder on Sunday. Jesus wept, i came buckets. The sheer power of the thing meant it couldn't put the power down on a smooth road because it was slightly damp, my mate said it wasn't even close to full throttle.
The noise when he pulled away and opened it up standing watching from the side of the road is immense, even more so inside of the thing!

M3 DCT @ £65k at local showroom yesterday, I was underwhelmed by some of the plastics and the lightweight body panels aren't an exaggeration LOL, I pressed my palm on the front wing and the whole wing flexed inwards!!
Other than that though it's one heck of a machine in person especially in matte black, looks amazing and the seats, so comfortable, even in the back, soft leather all over =)
The extended stitching went around the dashboard edged as well, is that an E92 M3 thing only?

I cant make my mind up if i'd rather have a C63, and take it to Kleeman to have 570bhp out of it or have the M3 Saloon.
One is more of a cruiser, with an torque converting auto box, oodles of power, and the ability to kick the tail out on a whim and not as fast round the track.
The other is one of the fastest saloons around a track, with proper gearboxes (either a manual or double clutch auto) but isnt as much of a hooligan and isnt as fast in a straight lane, and some would say a bit boring

That's the curse of silly matte/satin black paint and dark wheels. I think the colour/finish ruins it

Not really, that is massive arch gap!
Hmm between a C63 and M-DCT? I'd choose the C63 every single time! reviewers said the gearbox is perfectly fine although around down it shifts too often in auto but I'd use the paddles all the time anyway and hold gears a bit longer just for the sound ^_^
The interior is nicer in the Merc too IMO!
But the Ms matte above I really like!
As for the gap, those are 19" wheels so gap looks worse no? The 20" wheels look way more at home.

I'm guessing they've fitted competition wheels and not fitted competition pack springs which lower the car ?
As the arch gaps arent that bad on the press photos of the M3 Competition
